Résumé :
FRANÇAIS :
Devant l'étendue des problèmes de drogues aux Etats-Unis et leurs conséquences sanitaires et sociales, le NIDA a demandé à l'Institut de Médecine de faire le point sur les recherches en cours et de proposer des orientations pour de futures recherches. L'ouvrage expose les recommandations du Comité créé en janvier 1995 au sein de l'Institut de Médecine pour répondre à sa nouvelle mission. Des recommandations sont faites par le Comité dans tous les domaines de la toxicomanie (surtout aux produits illicites) : le comportement, les neurosciences, l'épidémiologie, l'étiologie, la prévention, les conséquences sanitaires et sociales (transmission du VIH, conséquences sur le développement du foetus et de l'enfant, violence), le traitement, la gestion économique de la prise en charge, le contrôle des drogues.
ENGLISH:
Drug abuse persists as one of the most costly and contentious problems on the nation's agenda. Pathways of Addiction meets the need for a clear and thoughtful national research agenda that will yield the greatest benefit from today's limited resources.
The committee makes its recommendations within the public health framework and incorporates diverse fields of inquiry and a range of policy positions. It examines both the demand and supply aspects of drug abuse.
"Pathways of Addiction" offers a fact-filled, highly readable examination of drug abuse issues in the United States, describing findings and outlining research needs in the areas of behavioral and neurobiological foundations of drug abuse. The book covers the epidemiology and etiology of drug abuse and discusses several of its most troubling health and social consequences, including HIV, violence, and harm to children.
"Pathways of Addiction" looks at the efficacy of different prevention interventions and the many advances that have been made in treatment research in the past 20 years. The book also examines drug treatment in the criminal justice setting and the effectiveness of drug treatment under managed care.
The committee advocates systematic study of the laws by which the nation attempts to control drug use and identifies the research questions most germane to public policy. "Pathways of Addiction" provides a strategic outline for wise investment of the nation's research resources in drug abuse. This comprehensive and accessible volume will have widespread relevance--to policymakers, researchers, research administrators, foundation decisionmakers, healthcare professionals, faculty and students, and concerned individuals.
